2023 RWC Buildup, Squads, Fixtures 'etc'

Barnes had a pretty good game in fairness you have to admit.

We haven't won a quarter final ever in the world cup. We are the spurs of world rugby

They deserve it, they beat us after all, eh?

PSDT immense out there tonight. Thought SA were poor in second half. Had an extra man for 50mins+ and were lucky to get over the line. Bench selection backfired. Little impact aside from Smith who was excellent.

If nothing else I'm delighted PSDT won POTM and gets a winners medal.

But surely the game of rugby was the loser, there'll be post mortems galore.

Barnes was fine. He let the flow as much as he could, but it was a nervy game dominated by kicks for territory and defence.

If you want to blame anyone blame Cane for a stupid tackle.

Excellent

The bomb squad got destroyed by 7 men

Well done Jacovs enjoy your night.

we tried to play but poor discipline in the first half cost us.

can’t be too disappointed. NZ have generally been rubbish under foster and making the final was a pleasant surprise.

still not convinced cards are resulting in less head contact.

savea was excellent. But so too was PSTD a well deserved motm.

i think world rugby needs to look at the whole water subs and injury breaks thing with everyone wired up to the coaching team.

but well done Jacovs

And what has that got to do with anything?

Well done South Africa and Rassie Erasmus....coaching genius....

We had our chance and blew it

Why don't you count the penalty in the NZ 22 give against Kolisi for not releasing in the tackle when he clearly did? That should have been a penalty to SA right in front of the posts.
